Step 1: Begin by selecting a relatively smaller hair section from the front of your head.

Step 2: Now using the normal braiding technique braid that section of hair but not all the way; leave about an inch of hair at the bottom un-braided. Also, keep in the mind not to make the braid too tight.

Step 3: Now, hold the strand that’s in the middle steady and push the other two strands towards the top of your head.

Step 4: This step really defines the aesthetic of your snake braid. Simply and very gently, pull down the two strands a wee bit at a time; do it right and you will see the snake emerge.You can pull them as far down as you want.

Step 5: Now tether it to the back of your head using a bobby pin.

Step 6: Spray some hair-hold and you’re done with your snake braid hairstyle. Wella has some of the best hairstyling products around, if you’re looking for a recommendation!
